Michael Jackson's only daughter showed off her chopped locks with a super-short new platinum blonde hairstyle on March 2, 2016.
Just a few weeks shy of her 18th birthday, Paris had a cigarette tucked behind her ear.
According to a Jackson family friend, "Katherine and Joe both told her that she is not to smoke any more cigarettes, but she is not listening. She told them that it is her life and she is going to do what she wants."

"Paris's family is extremely worried about her right now, but they are actually just allowing her to continue smoking right now because they are so afraid of her shutting them out even more," the source told RadarOnline.com.
The blonde hair highlighted Paris's piercing blue eyes.
The drastic cut was a form of rebellion against her maternal grandmother, Katherine Jackson, according to sources. "Katherine always loved Paris's hair and that is why Paris cut it all off and dyed it," an insider told RadarOnline.com. "She is basically doing everything right now that they do not want her to do."
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Paris has been meeting with Leonardo DiCaprio's manager to help launch her acting and modeling career.
